Chapter 5: Configuring the Router
Appendix A. FAQ
1. How do I configure the router to access the Internet via ADSL users?
1a. First, configure the ADSL Modem in the RFC1483 bridge model.
1b. Connect the Ethernet cable from your ADSL Modem to the WAN port on the router. The telephone cord plugs into the Line
port of the ADSL Modem.
1c. Login to the router, click the “Network” menu on the left of your browser, and click the "WAN" submenu. On the WAN
page, select “PPPoE” for the WAN Connection Type. Type the user name in the “Username” field and password in the
“Password” field, type the password in the “Confirm Password” field again, and finish by clicking “Connect.”
Figure A-1. PPPoE Connection Type.
1d. If your ADSL lease is in “pay-according-time” mode, select “Connect on demand” or “Connect manually” for Internet
connection mode. Type an appropriate number for “Max Idle Time” to avoid wasting paid time. Otherwise, you can select
“Always on” for Internet connection mode.
Figure A-2. PPPoE Connection Mode.
NOTES:
Sometimes the connection cannot be disconnected even though you specify a time for Max Idle Time, since some applications
visit the Internet continually in the background.
If you are a Cable user, configure the router following the above steps.
2. How do I configure the router to access the Internet via Ethernet users?
2a. Login to the router, click the “Network” menu on the left of your browser, and click the "WAN" submenu. On the WAN
page, select “Dynamic IP” for "WAN Connection Type," then click “Save.”
2b. Some ISPs require that you register the MAC Address of your adapter, which is connected to your cable/DSL Modem during
installation. If your ISP requires MAC registration, login to the router and click the "Network" menu link on the left of your brows-
er, then click "MAC Clone" submenu link. On the "MAC Clone" page, if your PC’s MAC address is the proper MAC address, click
the "Clone MAC Address" button and your PC’s MAC address will fill in the "WAN MAC Address" field. Or, type the MAC
Address into the "WAN MAC Address" field. The format for the MAC Address is XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX. Click the "Save" button.
The setting will take effect after rebooting.
